September Finishes #02: Quilted Tote Bag

This post is part of the 2013 FAL

Hi Everyone!!

Yes! I finished another bag in September.  This is not a new sewing project. I've started this project in 2011 when I joined the Stitch and Quilt Along hosted by Jennie over at Clover and Violet. I've accidently make mistake when cutting the fabrics. I save all the small pieces that I've wrongly cut for future projects.... and here it is a tote bag.

   I used the same embroidery design from the sew along for the outside pocket.
 

 

 It comes with a zipper closure and

  

with a pocket at the inside of the bag.

 

 

 

 

 I still have another one which is a work in progress but in different colors and design for the outside pocket. Till then...

Happy Sewing to all!! 

 

 

 

2013 Finish-A-Long : 3rd Quarter

Hello!
 

 

Here I am again...with my list of UFOs that I wish to look into finishing in the 3rd quarter of this year.  This time I list my UFOs in photos  and label each of the project name below to the link when I started all these projects...

1. Garden Steps Quilt  2. Sunburst Granny Square Afghan 3. Long skirt 4. Bags 5. Postage Stamp Quilt  6. Geranium Baby dress

Garden Steps Quilt was a finished project from Quilt Along that I joined in 2012 hosted by mother/daughter team at Clover & Violet.

 

I also include one UFO crochet project in the list.  Hope it is OK with the Finish-A-Long rules.  It is my first crochet along that I joined in 2011 hosted by Scotti over at  Oxford Family.

 

Third in the list is the fabric that I've cut and seage for making a long skirt for my daughter.  I never share about it at my blog so I can't show how long I've beeen keeping the fabrics.

 

Fourth are bags inspired from the market tote quilt along that I participated in 2011.  The quilt along was  hosted at Clover & Violet. 

 

Fifth is the scrappy postage stamp quilt which I finished the top in March 2012. 

 

And last but not least the project that I look into finishing is this Geranium Baby dress(small size).  I found the free pattern at Made By Rae  which I download and start cutting the fabric early of this year. 

 

Happy Sewing!

 

June Finishes #01 : Scraptacular Quilt

This post is part of the 2013 FAL,and  A Lovely Year of Finishes

 

Yeah...I finished sewing this scraptacular quilt. The quilt top was completed in January 2012 .   The finished size is 52" X 65" This is how the front looks like.

and this is the back. 

 

This is my first quilt that used machine. I would say that the result is not as beautiful as the pieces that I hand quilt.
